Book Review: KISS
Summary: 5 Stars
KEEP IT SIMPLE STUPID!!! I loved it! The Science of Sexy gives women the basics of body typing and style. There may not be a lot of pages for each body type but there is TONS of information in those pages along with little tricks on highlighting your best features and minimizing your worst.
His biggest point is to learn to love your body, whatever shape it is. If YOU can't love your body, how can anyone else? I wish more women knew these simple techniques. He's got the right attitude in helping women find the most flattering styles for their particular body, NOT what the fashion magazines tout as 'style' that only looks attractive a size 2, 5' 10" woman!!!
Summary of The Science of Sexy: Dress to Fit Your Unique Figure with the Style System That Works for Every Shapeand Size
A celebrity fashion designer gives every woman the red-carpet treatment in this foolproof guide to choosing clothes that make you look fabulous-with tailor-made tips for forty- eight body types.From Oprah to Eva Longoria, top L.A. designer Bradley Bayou has dressed women of all shapes and sizes and knows that every woman has her own natural combination of silhouette shape, height, and weight. Style is not about fitting into the size you think is sexy, it is about picking clothes that fit your body correctly and that create balance.
In The Science of Sexy, Bayou helps readers identify their silhouette shape (triangle, inverted triangle, rectangle, or hourglass) and combines that information with a height/weight chart to determine which of the forty-eight "fitting rooms" to go to in the book. Each fitting room has Bradley's specific advice on the clothes and accessories to wear and avoid, and how to create balance using color, scale, proportions, and fabric.
